A Little Distracted...

Hi everyone. Sorry I haven't posted for a few days. I have good reason! I have been a little distracted when it comes to my craft lately... lots going on in my life, but one of the good things is something I have always wanted to do and never had the courage til now! I have finally got my motorbike licence! I picked up my new baby yesterday and I had to ride it home!!! I have to admit, I was extremely nervous and felt like vomiting but managed to hold it all together and had a fabulous ride home without incident! My family were in the car behind me the whole way (to protect me from behind!!) and my soon to be 9yr old daughter said, 'you are really good at that mum, you looked really good!'. So, I thought I would share a picture of my newest toy!

Its a Yamaha Scorpio 225! Its actually the same bike I learnt on in the Pre-learners course, which is a 7hr training course you have to do before you can get your licence these days. Thank goodness for passionate motorcyclist's who are prepared to share their expertise and train novices such as myself!! The course is very thorough, starting from the very basics of how to get on and off a bike the right way!!Anyhoo, will try to post some craft real soon... promise! xx
